Summer Days

A lot of pictures today. We are just enjoying spending time together. It is a blessing for us to be able to cherish the simple every day moments after so many months (years really) of busy schedules and hectic times. Enjoy!

Nathaniel is really getting into eating lots of different kinds of solid food. Cantaloupe has become a new favorite as is toast, Cheerios and now graham crackers. He just swiped this out of my mouth the other day and proceeded to gobble it up!

Jeremiah likes to "help" feed Nathaniel. He does pretty well with it.

Our trips to Home Depot are a hit because of the shopping carts that look like cars. Whoever thought of these was a genius! The boys love riding around and "driving."

Jeremiah hugs Nathaniel, who is really only interested in chewing on a paint brush. Jeremiah gives Nathaniel spontaneous hugs at the strangest times. It's kinda funny.

I just love seeing the two little heads from the back. Something about seeing my two boys calmly sitting together and the shape of their little blond heads just fills my heart with joy.

We finally put new swings on the swing set that a neighbor gave us last year.

"Look mama! I can swing!"

For some reason Jeremiah liked swinging on his tummy and watching the ground.

Nathaniel's shy face. Melts my heart every time!


The face that says, "this is fun and scary at the same time."


Jeremiah holding onto Nathaniel's swing to make sure that he is having fun too.
Jeremiah is having a hard time dealing with sharing (time, attention & things) now that Nathaniel is mobile, but every now and then he will do something so sweet and thoughtful and loving that I will choke up a little. I see tender glimpses of the relationship that is yet to be between these boys.
